[Mr Skrunts]

Normally it seems to take about 3 weeks to get an appointment with our Doctors

Depending on the type of appointments some are quicker and some take longer like a med's review or booked weeks in advance for a check up.

I have Developed a rash around my middle abovemy belly button and has become itchy, rang doctors triage and been told a doctor will ring me within 30 mins (Not a nurse)  Not concerned about it but just thought I would get advice before the weekend.

Wonder whats up with me 

[Sir Tigger KC]

Have you been cavorting with the kind of ladies you wouldn't have introduced to your mother?   

Scabies?  I had that once. Itchy as hell it was!       

I think I got it after staying in a hotel in Mombasa where if they had changed the sheets, they'd been briefly rinsed in cold water which wasn't enough to kill the mites. 

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Sounds suspiciously like galloping knob rot to me.

Shame on you, Skruntie.

just looked it up - nothing like that.

I think its just a sweat rash, it was bloody cold the other night and I had the heating on and was under a fleece (On my own) and got a bit sweaty.

As a breakless youth the address and phone number of the 'clap clinic' was well known to myself and my mates of that time.

Since our new medical centre was built here, consolidating all the doctors surgeries (except one), it's impossible to get an appointment. Ever.  Standard answer seems to be use a pharmacy or A&E. Our A&E's are complete arses to get to, being either Oxford or Banbury, neither are compatible with driving to.
